Guardian Bookshop Notes:

The 3rd volume of in Gray's trilogy of memoirs which began with "The Smoking Diaries". Gray is determined to give up smoking, but can he really kick the habit of 60 years? Will he, sometime soon, be able to leave his house without nervously feeling for his 2 packets of 20 and his 2 lighters, and add no more singes to his cardigan? A wonderful combination of comedy and serious reflection, sharp observation and painful self-disclosure, these diaries have reinvented the memoir form and are destined to become classics of autobiography. 'A new volume from Simon Gray is always a rare treat' "Evening Standard"
